I am a banking and finance specialist with over 20 years’ experience and am head of Sackers’ contingent asset and alternative funding solutions practice.I advise pension trustees and employers on a wide spectrum of funding, covenant and security solutions for DB pension schemes. These may arise in the context of scheme funding discussions, where a corporate event such as a takeover, sale or corporate restructuring is taking place which requires mitigation, or on risk transfer transactions, such as a buy-in or buy-out, in the context of avoiding trapped surplus or funding insurer premiums where there are illiquid assets in the pension scheme.I have broad experience across all of these areas, which includes:-asset-backed funding structures (ABF) / asset-backed contribution structures (ABC) with a range of underlying assets-contribution arrangements – contingent funding agreements, dividend-linked additional contributions and upside sharing -contingent assets – escrow / charged account arrangements using cash and securities, guarantees, legal mortgages over real estate, letters of credit, PPF levy certifications, reservoir trusts and surety bonds-intercreditor and subordination arrangements-loans from employers to trustees-trapped surplus mitigation arrangements

Listed skills include Legal Advice, Investments, Cross Border Transactions, Corporate Law, and 7 others.
